The sublime Sonia Simone of Remarkable Communications recently convinced me that Margin Notes needed to relocate. After I agreed, I nursed this lovely fantasty that once she and her team had done all the heavy lifting she'd fly from Colorado to California and sit by my side and guide my astonishingly-non-techy self through the final steps. No, I take that back. I'd hoped she 'd sit here in my study and do every single bit of the work on the first few posts herself while I played with her adorable three-year-old at the park.Maybe even more than the first few posts. Maybe until her spawn turned into an adorable four-year-old.Now that I've released this fantasy into the ether, I'm going to have to sit at this desk alone and actually create posts and they may be a bit, uh, funky for a while.But, please, come on over to Margin Notes's new home. Once I figure out what-the-hell I'm doing I have some delicious stuff to share, including a recipe for the much-lauded butterscotch souffle from Murray Circle at Cavallo Point and a "4 Questions 4" from 2-star Michelin chef David Kinch of Manresa.And, Sonia, it's not too late to book tickets.

About Margin Notes

I write about food, interior design, and art for a variety of publications. And I scribble constantly in the margins of my cookbooks, recipe binders, travel diaries and interview notebooks. These ideas and tips are the margin notes of my culinary life and the core of this blog.

I ask only that comments never include a mention of peas -- that dinnertime horror of my clean-your-plate childhood, that blight of springtime restaurant menus, that staple of banquet entrees. Margin Notes is a Pea-free Zone.
